Let me know when you're ready for healthy, delicious smoothie recipes. I make an awesome broccoli smoothie and its yum. Also when youre weaning yourself off sugar, use cinnamon. It helps your body adjust and its a healthy replacement for sweers. Good luck, Ents!

I'm eliminating chicken and beef from my diet completely. Pork is a non issue since I have a severe food sensitivity to it, it's already eliminated from my diet. I'm doing this mostly to lose a few pounds I put on from having a surgery that kept me from working out for many more weeks than was anticipated. And then there were the holidays… I'm gonna be lookin' fine by the time summer rolls around.

And before I get unsolicited dietary advice – don't worry about. I got this.

Oddly enough, one thing my wife tolerates well is Indian food! I think the spices help get her gut flora balanced. Some stuff is good cooked in advance, that helps. She also loves making smoothies with her nutri-bullet, which is fast and easy, and the ingredients can be frozen.

My mom got mad at me because I wouldn't let her give the baby sugar water for her hiccups. I told her the only reason we had white sugar in the house was to mix with borax to kill ants with. Personally, we are honey folk in my household.

@OneEye – mmm.. Bavarian Honey.. Want!! I feed my son local honeycomb every day for his allergies. There's a honey farm up on Mt Hood that makes a lavender honey I cool with all the time and an apple honey that is heaven. I've been inspired to try my hand at mead making this spring.

Hi Stepforded… yeah, the one I make has many good fruit ingredients which hide the taste of the broccoli. Its really good. I will have to hunt fown the entire recipe. I tend to be a smoothie experimenter. Lol..so I will throw an ingredient in out of curiosity. Just a warning, fresh kale isnt good with any smoothie.yech!! Lol.. one of my personal trainers turned me on to the cinnamon thing and you know Iit sorta works. You do crave sweets a little less if you put it on yogurt, fruits, smoothies. He explained to me about whats in cinnamon but I can't remember what but it has ingredients that work well for those trying to stay away from sweets. I will have to try the banana thing. I put it in my coffee.. oh yes almost forgot that is so awesome that you're into healthy goods like spirulina. Ive been sick twice this month so I have added a new product which has spirulina, barley grass, wheat grass, kale and a host of many other green things including scores of probiotics. I throw a scoop into my shaker cup every morning with a little soy milk and have it for breakfast. Sorry I babble when it comes to exciting topics like this.

Switch to Stevia. It's zero calories and not just healthier — it's healthy. It was only available as a nutritional supplement for the decades before it became approved by the FDA as an alternative sweetener.
